Social wealth
When you make friends that would give off the shirt on their back if you need help, you realize no amount of money is going to buy that sort of friendship.
Though having lots of money so that I can have many minions and a harem sounds pretty cool too |

What's your position? |
I agree but with your view. We would first have to have unlimited resources for people to start caring about each other. And even then it is very doubtful people would change. |

not true
in this world of "it's not what you know, but WHO you know" many times, people escalate up the social ladder through networking and building conrete relationships with others.
This in turn allows for upward social AND financial mobility |
